Original Research by School Decision on C.s. Lewis Academy
C.S. Lewis Academy is a single-school district serving kindergarten through sixth grade in Utah County. Because it is an elementary-only district, it has no graduation rate and no high-school-level academic measures. The district operates one school of the same name, which is listed as open.
The student body, based on available enrollment data, is sizable for an elementary-grade district of this kind. The student composition is diverse. More than half of students are Hispanic, and most of the remaining students are White, with very small numbers of students who identify as American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, or two or more races. The share of students who qualify for free or reduced-price lunch was not reported, so a family cannot determine economic need from this data. Special population counts, such as for students with disabilities or English learners, were also not available. A parent may want to ask the school directly about these support services.
State testing results are reported for math, English language arts, and science, all for grades three through eight. The proficiency rates across these subjects place the district in the bottom quartile among Utah County's districts on the measure of overall proficiency. In math, just under one in six students scored proficient or above. In English language arts, roughly one in five students reached that bar. In science, just over one in four students did. These are the most recent available results. The state uses the RISE assessment and defines proficiency as scoring at Levels 3 or 4. A family should know that this data reflects the performance of students across the tested grade span, and the district as a whole falls well below the midpoint of the county's districts.
Chronic absenteeism is a concern here. The district's chronic absenteeism rate is the highest among the county's districts where this measure was reported, placing it in the bottom quartile (with lower absenteeism considered better). This may be an area a parent wants to understand better by speaking with the school about attendance patterns and what supports are in place.
The district's per-pupil current spending is in the middle range, in the upper half of Utah County's districts. This suggests that funding is not unusually low relative to other districts in the county.
No information was publicly available about specific programs, such as gifted offerings, arts, or extracurricular activities. The district brief search found general profile information but no lasting parent-relevant changes, such as boundary adjustments or leadership turnover, that a family would need to track.
Housing and community context were not provided, so there is no picture of the area's home values or local growth. A family looking at this district would need to research the neighborhoods served and ask about the school's specific academic approach, given its elementary-only structure and the performance data.
